1.) Assign a grade for the team's overall performance this season. B  Can't be a C (made playoffs), can't be an A (one and done again).

2.) In your opinion, should Marvin be back for next season? Yes

3.) This exact point this off-season vs last off-season:  Are you more confident, less confident, or equally confident going into the upcoming season. About the same, could easily drop if we don't resign a few of our best FA guys.

4.) Who was this year's most pleasant surprise for you? Dalton, I just didn't think he had it in him to be a top 10 QB.

5.) Who was the biggest disappointment? Jeremy Hill, like WTF happened to his running?

6.) The Bengals are offered a top half of the round, 2nd round pick for AJ McCarron.  Do you take it? Probably not as would have to replace him in the draft and likely have to rely on that draft pick for a game or two. So, do you really want a rookie QB playing? And what round pick would you have to use on a QB to get one you believed in? If you end up spending a 4th round pick on another QB, then you've only moved up two rounds for McCarron and that's not really good enough. He's worth more than that to the Bengals

7.) Biggest free agent priority (in house)? Hum, that's a tough one. On first thought I'd say Iloka, but he's likely going to cost a lot of cap space and could prevent us from resigning two other guys. So I'm going to say Marvin Jones closely followed by Adam Jones.

8.) Free agent that you want to see walk. Easy, Tate. I don't care that Marvin Lewis likes him. I think his returns from 9 yards deep in the end zone suck.

9.) Vontaze Burfict:  Is his style of play a problem? Only to the Steelers, so no.

10.) You can only keep one: Pacman or Leon Hall? Pacman

11.) Denver's free agency approach these last few years, worth it? Yes, they won and that's the point. One and done just isn't the point at all, although I'm sure some people are going to list all the reasons why it is the point.

12.) If you could any cast member from The Office to this team who would it be? Have never watched The Office.

13.) Are you excited that Kevin Bacon will one day be our owner? No opinion

14.) Name one "name" free agent you would like to see signed this offseason. Bolden

15.) Do we do better next year than we did this year (either more wins and/or playoff win)? No f'n idea.
